“Darcy saved us when our sitter cancelled days before we left for vacation. She took very good care of our cat and went above and beyond keeping us updated on everything. I would recommend her to anyone needing their pets cared for!”
“Amanda took care of Lanie and sent pictures to let me know that Lanie was happy and cared for. She also took on feeding some outdoor cats that have chosen my house as their base. Amanda was always timely in her visits and took time to secure a couple of package deliveries during my time away. I will likely contact her again when I need care for Lanie to see if she can accommodate my schedule. I appreciate her willingness to take on the extras. Thank you, Amanda.”
About: I’ve helped care for neighbors’ and family members’ pets, since I was about 5! I also fostered some adult dogs, who needed some extra love recently. I love caring for animals and learning about their individual ✨ personalities✨ Schedule sometimes varies, but early morning and after 4pm are when I’m typically available. Just let me know if there are specific times, and we can see if we are a good fit! You know your pet the best! Feel free to tell me their routine, any rules they have, to the preferred walk routine, and I’ll be sure to respect those needs!
About: I sincerely love animals and understand how hard it can be to be away from your pet. My intention is to provide loving care to your pet so that you can feel peace of mind while you are away. My dad is a veterinarian and I grew up being around all sorts of animals. I have worked at a few different animal hospitals and spent several years at a dog daycare, pet-sitting off and on over the years. For a long time I had two of the greatest canine companions, Windy (a Jack Russel) and Luna (corgi mix). They have sinced passed, and so I really appreciate getting a chance to be around other doggos. I have a pretty flexible schedule and am willing to do drop ins, walks, and overnight stays (at your home, I have a territorial cat at my home :)). My schedule is very open and flexible. I do not have any other jobs currently and am utilizing my savings until I find an income that aligns with my personality and values. I would love to do pet care full time. I am able to care for your pets at your home. I will not take any pets to my home because it is a small apartment and my cat has strong boundaries :) I have a fairly open schedule and am most likely able to accommodate whatever needs you have, whether it's overnight stays, drop-in visits, walks, etc! I'm open to communicate and figure out what works best for you and your pet.
About: I’ve cared for pets since I was a kid, from hermit crabs and fish to dogs of all ages and breeds. Currently, I love looking after a 9-year-old Great Dane/Great Pyrenees mix and a 16-year-old Terrier Schnauzer mix, plus my own cats. I enjoy walks, playtime, snuggles, and showering pets with the love and attention they deserve. I feel comfortable with most breeds, am highly attentive, and take all care instructions seriously, making sure every furry friend feels safe, happy, and cherished. 3+ Pets and multiple nights will get a discount; I work with budgets! Shoot me a message and let’s work something out :) I work Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., with an hour lunch break, but caring for pets fits seamlessly into my routine. I can give love, attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles in the morning, during lunch, and after work, making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and cherished throughout the day. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow all instructions carefully and stick to their routine. I provide meals, walks, playtime, and lots of snuggles, ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I also make sure the pet’s veterinarian contact information is posted where I can quickly access it in case of an emergency, giving owners peace of mind while their pets are in my care.
About: Ive taken care of many species of dogs, cats, and reptiles. I have a huge heart for animals and only want what's best for them. I am a biochemist in studying right now who strives to use their degree in veterinary sciences. I have a lot of time on my hands since my job doesn't open till the 2nd week of July and I cant work till then I plan to be very respectful while in the home owners house and take care of there animals the best I can while making sure to keep them updated along the way!
“Ashleigh is fantastic! She did recurring drop-in visits for our cats while we were away for a few weeks. Her communication is excellent - she would let me know when arriving, when leaving, also sent pics of kitties, and let me know if there were any questions or concerns. She is dependable, trustworthy, and considerate. Plus the kitties loved her! I would absolutely hire her again. And I have already recommended her services to a friend.”
About: I grew up around dogs and have always had a love for them. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure each dog gets the attention and care they need. I also have my own dog, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and keep them happy, safe, and well-loved. I care for my own cat and dog daily, so pet care is already a natural part of my routine. I plan my day around feedings, walks, playtime, and training, which makes it easy for me to give other pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs, including training. My dog is leash-trained and knows multiple tricks, and my cat is trained as well, so I understand structure, patience, and consistency. I follow all care instructions closely, prioritize safety at all times, and make sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved in their home environment.
About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for high-needs, large-breed dogs. I’ve owned and managed a giant breed with specific behavioral and care needs, so I understand how to handle dogs that require extra patience, structure, and attention. I am very comfortable reinforcing training, including basic commands, boundaries, and consistency with routines. I know how important it is to maintain the rules and expectations you’ve set for your pet, not undo them. I am also attentive to each animal’s individual personality and needs, whether that means providing calm companionship, structured activity, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits into my routine primarily on weekends, when I have the time to provide focused, attentive care. I already structure my days around caring for my own pets, so I am very comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, routines, and giving pets the attention they need. Because I work full time and attend school during the week, my availability is limited to weekends for dogs but can do daily cat drop-ins. During that time, I am reliable, consistent, and able to give pets quality care through drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and check-ins. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on maintaining consistency with feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I also make sure pets get attention and interaction, not just the basics, so they feel comfortable while you’re away. In my home, I provide a structured but relaxed environment. My own dog follows a routine with scheduled feeding, playtime, and rest, including crate time for sleeping, so I am comfortable maintaining similar routines for other dogs if needed. Dogs in my care have time to be active, as well as space to rest and feel secure. I am also experienced with administering daily medications and am comfortable caring for pets with additional needs. Whether I am in your home or mine, my goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible.
About: I’ve watched dogs for as long as i can remember. Even when my parents went out of town I was always in charge of watching the dogs. For many summers, I have pet sat for all kinds of dogs. I’m looking forward to helping this summer too! I’m currently home for the summer! I just finished up my freshman year of college and I have plenty of time and availability for animals!! I care for pets by checking in every couple hours and also by making sure to spend a substantial amount of time with the animals while they are under my care.
About: I have had animals my entire life and have worked in the veterinary field. I can give medications orally and injectables. I’m knowledgeable in senior care. I work full time at a vet clinic but i always make time and insure babies are taken care of. I have even taken my sits to the clinic to insure their medications are given at the times needed. I never leave the house without setting eyes on every baby. Insuring there are no signs of wounds, lethargy and insuring that they have eaten. All boxes cleaned, water bowels are cleaned and refreshed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
